Course Overview: Implementing Workloads and Security

Welcome to Implementing Workloads and Security (AZ-300t2).This course is part of a series of six courses to help students prepare for Microsoft’s Azure Solutions Architect technical certification exam AZ-300: Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies. These courses are designed for IT professionals and developers with experience and knowledge across various aspects of IT operations, including networking, virtualization, identity, security, business continuity, disaster recovery, data management, budgeting, and governance.

This course teaches IT professionals how to discover, assess, plan and implement a migration of on-premises resources and infrastructure to Azure. Students will learn how to use Azure Migrate to perform the discovery and assessment phase that is critical to a successful migration. They will also learn how to use Azure Site Recovery for performing an actual migration of workloads to Azure. This course focuses on using ASR on a Hyper-V infrastructure to prepare and complete the migration process.

Also, you will learn how to deploy serverless computing features like Azure Functions, Event Grid, and Service Bus. You will see how Azure multi-factor authentication facilitates safeguard access to data and applications, thus helping to meet customer demands for a simple sign-in process.
